Undying Life

Chapter 780: Chapter 780: Destroying the Tian Family

In the Netherworld, at the Tian Family's Stronghold

As Tian Tang's rage soared to the heavens, a figure flew towards the perimeter of the Tian family grounds.

Li Si stood outside the Tian family compound, observing the towering anger emanating from within. Such intense resentment!

"Who goes there?" a Tian family disciple immediately called out.

Li Si turned to look at the disciple. With a calm gaze, he regarded the disciple as if looking at a dead man.

"Inform the head of the Tian family that the Prime Minister of Great Qin, Li Si, has come to visit," Li Si said.

The Tian family disciple didn't dare say more and quickly retreated to report to the new head of the Tian family.

Li Si stood at the edge of the Tian family grounds, his gaze wandering over the compound as if deep in thought.

In the midst of the countless ghosts swirling around the area, another figure appeared.

Zhong Shan. Unbeknownst to anyone, Zhong Shan had arrived near the Tian family and was hiding stealthily.

Li Si sensed something and looked in Zhong Shan's direction.

"Whoosh!"

Like a phantom, Zhong Shan suddenly disappeared.

Seeing no one there, Li Si turned his attention back to the Tian family.

"An old acquaintance visiting needs no announcement. Li Si, come into the Tian family!" a loud voice suddenly called from within the Tian family compound.

Old acquaintance? Li Si's expression changed.

What old acquaintance did he have? Li Si's acquaintances were from eight thousand years ago!

With a hint of confusion, Li Si stepped forward and soon arrived at the gates of the Tian family. This time, no disciples dared to stop him, allowing Li Si to enter freely.

It wasn't long before Li Si reached the source of the voice: the Tian Pulse Hall.

Inside the Tian Pulse Hall were only two people: Tian Chenzi and the new head of the Tian family.

"It's you, Tian Chenzi?" Li Si's face changed.

"Li Si? It's been eight thousand years. I remember our last meeting, you couldn't last ten moves against me," Tian Chenzi said with a faint smile.

"Old man, you're still alive? Why are you still in this small thousand-world?" Li Si's expression shifted.

"Aren't you also in the small thousand-world?" Tian Chenzi said, looking at Li Si with a hint of seriousness.

"I understand now. You didn't live this long; you've been reincarnated multiple times through the Jingbo Pond, stubbornly staying in this small thousand-world!" Li Si quickly deduced.

Tian Chenzi frowned, seemingly realizing that this secret, unknown to anyone, had been seen through by Li Si in an instant.

"Speak, what do you want with my Tian family?" Tian Chenzi asked gravely.

Looking at Tian Chenzi, Li Si smiled wickedly. "The Emperor is about to arrive. Prepare to welcome him!"

"Ying? Where has your Great Qin been for these eight thousand years? How have you survived without reincarnation?" Tian Chenzi asked sternly, a hint of malice in his tone.

"When the Emperor arrives, you'll find out," Li Si said, retreating towards the exit.

Just as he stepped out of the hall.

"A member of Great Qin? Thinking of leaving so soon?" a cold voice called from outside the Tian Pulse Hall.

Li Si turned to see a man in a white robe, holding a pure white feather with a venomous look in his eyes.

It was a feather as large as a plantain fan, radiating a soft white light filled with sanctity.

"A celestial artifact?" Li Si's pupils constricted.

"What are you doing, Tian Chenzi?" Li Si asked coldly.

"It's none of my business. This is Tian Tang from the Tian family of the Grand Thousand World. What he does has nothing to do with me," Tian Chenzi said with a smile.

"Nothing to do with you? In your own Tian family, and it has nothing to do with you?" Li Si retorted, darting towards the outside.

"Stop!" Tian Tang's feather waved towards Li Si.

Suddenly, the sky turned milky white, and Li Si seemed to be trapped in a vast quagmire, surrounded by spatial vortices.

Li Si's body twisted rapidly, but his movements became extremely slow.

"Futile. I will thoroughly torment you. Great Qin? I will ensure that every member suffers the most brutal punishment," Tian Tang's voice was icy.

"Indeed, it's a fine treasure. I want that feather," Li Si, struggling, suddenly mocked.

"Hahaha, facing death, you still covet my treasure?" Tian Tang laughed in anger.

"With your current sealed power, you can't harm me, but you also can't kill me!" Li Si stated with absolute certainty.

"Is that so? Let's test that theory!"

"Kill~~~!"

Outside the Tian family, a massive roar echoed.

Under the roar, a terrifying sword formed of pure killing intent slashed towards the Tian family.

"Boom~~~!"

The protective formation around the Tian family shattered under the immense force, as if the entire Tian family was being split in two.

With a fierce slash, Tian Tang was forced to retreat.

"Boom!"

The area around the Tian Pulse Hall crumbled into ruins, allowing Li Si to escape and soar into the sky.

Another figure suddenly appeared beside Li Si.

"White General has arrived late; Prime Minister, please forgive me!" the newcomer said immediately.

"General Bai Qi, I have a request!" Li Si said.

"Prime Minister, please speak."

"I want that feather he's holding. Please, General Bai Qi, kill him and retrieve the feather for me!" Li Si said, staring at Tian Tang with a smile.

"A trivial matter. Consider it done," Bai Qi replied promptly.

Bai Qi raised his sword again, slashing towards Tian Tang.

Tian Tang waved his feather at Bai Qi.

"Boom~~~!"

A large black hole appeared around them, but Tian Tang was sent flying by Bai Qi's slash.

"Still alive after that?" Bai Qi said in surprise, pursuing Tian Tang.

Tian Tang's eyes widened in shock. Who was this person?

"Boom!"

Bai Qi slashed again, and Tian Tang fled, with Bai Qi in hot pursuit.

In just two rounds of combat, Tian Tang was already on the defensive, fleeing. The power of Great Qin's killing god was overwhelming.

After just two exchanges, the Tian family was left in ruins. The intense killing intent from Bai Qi had even frozen to death some of the lower-level cultivators.

"Li Si, what exactly does Great Qin want?" Tian Chenzi asked angrily.

Throughout the ordeal, Tian Chenzi had refrained from direct action, seemingly wary of Great Qin.

"Eight thousand years ago, I wasn't your match. Eight thousand years later, try taking a hit from me now!" Li Si's demeanor shifted, turning more aggressive.

In recognizing Tian Chenzi, Li Si initially considered retreating, but now he no longer needed to. Bai Qi's arrival signaled that the strongmen of Great Qin had all arrived.

"Do you think you can defeat me?" Tian Chenzi smirked, a confident gleam in his eyes.

Li Si extended his palm, pushing it forward slowly. As he did, a massive black hand appeared in the void. The space around the black hand trembled violently, shaking more intensely until, "Crack!"—a huge fissure appeared.

The immense pressure bore down on Tian Chenzi, whose eyes narrowed. A powerful aura erupted from him, pushing all the Tian family disciples away. Tian Chenzi raised his hand and conjured a golden palm in the void.

The golden palm shattered the void and collided with Li Si's black palm.

"Boom!"

The surrounding space shattered. In the ensuing black hole, the black giant palm of Li Si clashed with Tian Chenzi's golden palm. They remained locked in place, the sheer force preventing the black hole from closing.

Li Si's face paled, while Tian Chenzi's expression turned solemn.

"Is this your limit?" Li Si, his face ashen, asked Tian Chenzi.

"You couldn't defeat me eight thousand years ago, and you still can't now!" Tian Chenzi sneered.

"You're wrong. I've already measured your limits. You've grown in these eight thousand years, but you still can't surpass me," Li Si said, a trace of blood seeping from his mouth.

"Hmph!" Tian Chenzi snorted.

"Bang!"

Li Si was struck by Tian Chenzi and sent flying. As he flew backward, he spat out a mouthful of blood but seemed more relieved than defeated.

As Li Si was thrown from the black hole, Tian Chenzi stepped forward in pursuit.

In a secluded corner, the new head of the Tian family watched the confrontation. Suddenly, he felt a chilling presence that made his hair stand on end.

"Slash!"

The new head of the Tian family looked down incredulously at his chest, where a hand had pierced through. Yet, there was no one behind him. Where did this hand come from?

As he collapsed, he saw something strange—his shadow seemed to sprout a man.

Zhong Shan?

"You!" the head of the Tian family gasped in despair.

"When Tian Xiaozi died, he didn't see the Tian Pulse Sword. Since the Jingbo Pond has been given to Ying, the Tian Pulse Sword naturally belongs to me," Zhong Shan said, bending down to pick up the Tian Pulse Sword from the dying man's hand.

With the sword in hand, Zhong Shan didn't linger and swiftly retreated.

In the distance, Li Si, still airborne from Tian Chenzi's strike, was caught by someone.

"Boom!"

Li Si was caught by Ying, who wore a dragon robe and a flat crown. Behind him stood a group of Great Qin's elite warriors.

"Tian Chenzi, you're still alive," Ying said calmly.

At the sight of Ying, the murderous intent in Tian Chenzi's eyes vanished.

"Your Majesty, I have failed you," Li Si said, ashamed.

Ying took out a small bottle and handed it to Li Si. "This is a Nine-Turn Golden Pill, refined by Xu Fu. You haven't failed me. You managed to withstand that strike while still under several seals. You've improved significantly over the years."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Li Si said gratefully.

By then, Bai Qi had returned, dragging his sword behind him.

"Prime Minister Li, here's the 'celestial artifact' you wanted. Unfortunately, that guy escaped to the Grand Thousand World," Bai Qi said, handing over the feather Tian Tang had used.

"Thank you!"

Bai Qi nodded in acknowledgment.

The group's attention returned to Tian Chenzi.

Tian Chenzi eyed the white feather in Li Si's hand, his gaze then shifting to Ying.

"Ying, what do you want? Why are you causing trouble for my Tian family?" Tian Chenzi demanded.

"Take one strike from me. If you survive, I'll let you leave," Ying said nonchalantly.
